4 and 1/3
0.15 = 15/100 = 3/20 so its reciprocal is 20/3 = 62/3
False.
the reciprocal
A mixed number must have an integer part (and a fractional part). Consequently, a mixed number must be greater than one. The reciprocal of a number greater than one is less than one (and conversely) since the two, when multiplied together, make 1.
